[1][2] Known for sporting and handsomely designed cars,[3] Rally competed with other French cyclecar makers of the era such as Amilcar, B.N.C., and Salmson.
[4] At the 1926 Paris Salon the underslung Grand Sport was shown, with a supercharged 1,093 cc Chapuis-Dornier engine of 70 PS (51 kW).
Mechanical drum brakes and a three-speed manual transmission was the norm for Rally's cars of the twenties.
The Salmson-engined cars also received a four-speed gearbox and often carried a "Salmson" as well as a "Rally" logo on the grille.
Rally was not strong enough to survive the economic depression of the early thirties, and the company was shuttered in 1933 (or 1934[6]) after having spent perhaps a little too much on competition efforts.
[4] Rally ABC's took part in the 1932 and 1933 Mille Miglia road races,[5] and finished third and fourth at the San Sebastián Grand Prix.
Finally, in 1935, Emile Scordel was seen at the Grand-Prix de Lorraine - Seichamps, and won in the 1500 cc sport class.
